Background

Sergeant Bear McBride is a native of Scorpia's Argentum Bay, and did his formative schooling at the Fist of Ares Formative Academy for Young Men, a military-style school in Celeste run by the (very small) educational arm of the Cult of Ares. He served four years, with tours on Tauron and Sagittaron, before taking an honorable discharge and returning to civilian life. This lasted for about two years before he decided to re-enlist and volunteered for the 'deep space mining mission' that would turn out to be JTF NOMAD. He has an identical twin brother, Phin McBride, an ensign viper pilot in BS Orion's Air Wing.

Description

Bear McBride is a young man, probably not yet past twenty-five. He's about average height, with a solid, muscular build. His fair skin is tanned in a way that suggests he's spent more time planet-side recently than in deep space, and he has a blue-eyed, square-jawed face that's generally not clean-shaven. When he speaks there's a tinge of a gulf coast Scorpia twang in his voice, though years off-planet have softened it.

When his arms are bare, a tattoo is visible on his right forearm. It's intricate script, written so it's lacing around the arm, and reads: "…the keen fury of my heart which provokes me to tread the ways of blood-curdling strife." Those who know about such things would recognize this as a verse from one of the hymns of Ares, though it's a deeper cut, not one of the popular 'ra ra war' ones.
